weapons, have been opposed to nuclear power, or have investigated alternative
sources of energy.

Scottish
National Antarctic Expedition: established what is now the oldest continuous
meteorological station operating in the Antarctic; with photographs provided
by the Scott Polar Research Institute, University of Cambridge.

Seeing the light: an
amateur meteorologist established the connection between carbon dioxide and
climate change 70 years ago; we also look at British scientists who were researching
solar energy more than fifty years ago.

Solly Zuckerman: the
papers of scientist Solly Zuckerman (1904-1993) provide a primary source for
the study of British science and technology policy; air operations in Europe
and the Middle East in World War II; wound ballistics research; and the evolution
of operational research.

Typewriters and Office Machines: typewriters and their impact on office workers in collections at The Women's Library and other collections around the UK. Throughout the 20th century female typists were a key part of office life, resulting in an uneasy relationship between the workforce and the machine.

Volcanoes
and earthquakes: papers of geologists and geophysicists, travellers and
photographers who have witnessed the effects of volcanoes and earthquakes,
with 19th century geological illustrations, 19th century photos of Pompeii,
and photos of the 1963 Skopje earthquake; Britain recently experienced its
strongest earthquake in almost a quarter of a century.
